Business intelligence: methods and applications

This Festschrift is a collection of articles by colleagues and (former) students of Prof. Hans-J. Lenz to honor his work in the field of Business Intelligence. The 18 articles provide interesting insights into many methods and applications of this innovative topic, such as data warehousing, statistics, graphical models, data mining and decision support techniques, as well as forecasting, simulation, and controlling. This collection represents an overview of current BI research and is therefore a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners.
